Tranquility of Beecher, IL

Established in 1870, the village of Beecher is 37 miles south of Chicago. The modest population ensures all the tranquility and slower pace of a rural lifestyle. The historic downtown has successfully shifted from a retail district to a business and professional center. Route 1, the Dixie Highway corridor, has welcomed an influx of new retail activity and a growing collection of light industry. Offering all the charm and friendliness of "small town America." Beecher features delightful neighborhoods and a housing selection that includes vintage brick or frame homes, stately mansions, newer ranches, two-story family homes, and modern tri-levels. Other highlights include heavily wooded home sites with horse privileges and a 27-hole public golf course. Commuters can access the Illinois Central Gulf Metra Line in Richton Park or in University Park.
